Racer 5 - This is a hoppy IPA. Did I say hops? Your brewer is a hop head! This is a full bodied beer using American grains. The goal was to create a base for showing off the unique floral qualities of two Pacific Northwest hops, Columbus and Cascade. Columbus is a new hybrid High Alpha Acid hop used mostly for bittering, but used heavily as an aromatic in this strong brew. Cascade is the balance that ties the malt and bittering hops together. It is a true specialty ale and is our brewer's statement on this style. 2004 L.A.

Red Rocket Ale - The brew of choice for mountain bikers, and adventurous types worldwide. (Are you excited now!) This fiery red ale is not for the weak at heart.

Wine Country Wheat - This is our German wheat ale, a true Hefe Weizen. This refreshing, unfiltered, golden, wheat beer uses a unique Bavarian yeast strain to impart a fruity, spicy character which is classic for this style. Our Wine Country Wheat Ale is very distinct, high in carbonation, and displays a thick creamy head. Often served with a slice of lemon, this is a great beer to drink on a hot summer day in Healdsburg. Bronze Medal, 1998, California State Fair. - og 1.049, ABV 4.5%, IBU 12.

It is very mild in hop bitterness compared to our I.P.A. or Red Rocket. It is medium in body and has a very noticeable malt character. The English grains are very modified which leaves you with a full mouth feel but low in alchohol. UK East Kent Golding Hops are used for both aroma an bittering. Bronze Medal 1997 & 1998. - og 1.054, ABV 4.8%, IBU 32.

Heritage Ale - This beer is fermented at a lower temperature than our standard ales, giving it a very malty taste. Scottish and English malts are melded together with English hops to create its strong, sweet, malty finish. The caramel color comes from a blending of UK Kent Goldings, but only in small amounts to allow malt flavors to come through. Be careful, it is strong with an alcohol level of 7.6%. Like a fine single malt,
this hearty brew will get better with age. Gold Medal, 2000, California State Fair, Silver Medal, 2001, California State Fair, Bronze Medal, 1997, Beerfest Invitational. - og 1.077, ABV 7.6%, IBU 30.
